Refinishing the basement can help you take advantage of your home’s square footage and increase your property value. Finding the right flooring helps establish the aesthetic of your entire basement. To help you better understand which option suits your lifestyle, here’s a guide to the best materials for refinishing your basement.

Guide to the Best Flooring Options for Refinishing Your Basement

Hardwood

Hardwood flooring can be a low-maintenance choice for the basement, provided its engineered to prevent any dampness from existing basement flooring. It’s ideal for those who suffer from allergens, as the lack of padding material means there’s no accumulation of irritants. With a range of attractive hardwood flooring types, including parquetry, hard pine, spruce, and timber to choose from, there’s no shortage of ways to beautify the basement and add your own personal touches.

If you’re looking for a little softer option, carpet tile is a great alternative. Unlike a full carpet that can become easily damaged, carpet squares offer greater flexibility. If you damage a certain area, you can easily replace a square or two without affecting the rest of the flooring. In addition, the peel-and-stick installation is very low-maintenance with a quick turnaround time.

Ceramic Tile

Refinishing your basement with ceramic tile is a great way to address any troublesome dampness, as its sealed and glazed surface prevents moisture from seeping. Tile is also highly forgiving and resistant to everyday household wear. It’s friendly on the wallet as well, meaning you’ll have more wiggle room in the budget to invest into other areas of the basement.
